I have to say that I have wondered the same thing, given the constant derogatory comments about the 'oirish, pikeys, catholics, FTP, scotch etc'. Is there an antipathetic connection between South Africans and Celtic peoples that I am unaware of? I would like to know.

I doubt it has anything to do with South Africa. Anyone can be a bigot.

Re: Irish guy dies on Rio Tinto site
I have to say, I have witnessed a fair amount of anti Scotch and Oirish prejudice on this forum, to the point that it's blatantly ignored, it's disgraceful, but cannot recall an instance of racism from Amazulu, not once. Yes he joins in with all the jokes, as we all do, but that's it as far as I'm concerned.

Re: Irish guy dies on Rio Tinto site
No racism is ignored. If its meant in a serious tone and is reported its dealt with. There's plenty of anti-Welsh comments on here too but no worse than in any pub back home, same as the anti-English comments. if you don't think its been dealt with properly pm Sue about it.
The thread was not started with any racist intent and Alfresco has already tried to get it back on track. If it continues in this vein I will close it. |
